Fresh sardine (employed as discard model species) was pressed with a hydraulic press in order to obtain a partially dewatered cake (whose volume represents between 55% and 60% of the initial volume of raw material) and a 3-phase press liquor comprising an aqueous fraction, an oil fraction and a variable amount of suspended solids. Pressing conditions, such as final pressure to which the sardine...

Abstract Rapeseed press cake was upcycled as a protein-enriched ingredient through dry fractionation. The fraction contained higher amounts of phytic acid compared to cake, and phytase treatment applied decrease the content from 6.8 0.5%. effect leading release cations also mimicked by extrinsic calcium addition. Both addition significantly improved heat-induced gel properties but had minor on ...

By offering an opportunity to fulfil environmental and process water recovery specifications, filtration of tailings has received increasing attention. In the process, complete cake detachment is required maintain high throughputs. Incomplete discharge represents a bottleneck in process. Therefore, deeper understanding behaviour key success. Experimental studies on adhesion forces between filte...

In this study, a circulating fluidized bed of 125 mm diameter and 1800 mm height was used to find the combustion characteristics of olive cake (OC) produced in Turkey. Olive cake alone and olive cake+lignite coal mixtures were burned separately. Various olive cake/lignite coal ratios were tried. A suitable feeding mechanism of olive cake to the bed was developed. On-line concentrations of O2, S...

Fair cake-cutting is the division of a cake or resource among N users so that each user is content. Users may value a given piece of cake differently, and information about how a user values different parts of the cake can only be obtained by requesting users to “cut” pieces of the cake into specified ratios. Many distributed computing problems which involve resource sharing can be expressed as...

OBJECTIVES This study was conducted to clarify the analgesic effect of toad cake and toad-cake-containing herbal drugs. METHODS We counted the writhing response of mice after the intraperitoneal administration of acetic acid as a nociceptive pain model and the withdrawal response after the plantar surface stimulation of the hind paw induced by partial sciatic nerve ligation of the mice as a n...
